Just Add Water! (258)

Just Add Water!

On the way to New Bark Town, Ash & Co. go to the Unofficial Coastline Gym...a Water gym led by a trainer who frequently goes to Cerulean Gym. Misty decides to battle him to defend her own honor. Can she win?

I thought that Dorien was cute! Oh, I LOVE being in the water. So, if I had to choose a Pokemon for a battle against Dorien, I'd choose Gyrados 'cause he's got a lot of dragon power. RRRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the guy in this episode had a pretty good idea for a gym. At least it was a little bit different from the usual gyms, and his pokemon were good battlers. It's too bad we didn't actually see the twerps spreading the word about it at the Silver Conference like they promised, but at least this episode was pretty good. I also liked the part during the boss fantasy when Meowth mentions Giovanni peeling off his robe and James asks if he's wearing swimming trunks. LOL It was also great to see Psyduck battle one more time before Misty left.

I thought the same thing. Oh well. It happens a lot("I promise I'll meet you again, Gary Stu! You may be exactly like every other male trainer under the sun, but I'll always remember you!").

Y'know, I do wonder if Misty feels at all disturbed that Brock hits on her own family a lot. Or if she gets anrgy when Brock goes and comments on her sisters' beauty, yet ignoring her's(not that she's beautiful, per se).

Lanturn's voice poned. No way around it. Cute, yet tough. Quite a feat.

Mantine and Qwilfish had good voices, too. Yay for my favorite Pok&#233;mon getting great voices.

Dorien was a bit dull, I thought. His gym was cool, but he himself was just some random male who ran a gym. Needed more of a personality.

0_0 TR was pretty vicious in this episode. They easily could've killed the gang. They were also quite confident, just like last episode, and the arc before the last episode. It's a shame this trend doesn't continue all that long.

Psyduck in action is automatic yes.

The battles weren't all that exciting. And if you didn't see the water around them, you wouldn't know they were submerged, IMO.

Supersonic abuse ._.

Overall rating:
7.0 out of 10
Standard Johto filler. Showcases some cool Pok&#233;mon, but drags on the rest of the time. W00t for TR nearly succeeding and Psyduck fighting, though.

Ficubes made by me.

Someone gave me a keychain once that said "You're depriving some poor village of it's idiot." I thought it was a joke but no one else laughed

this is a very good episode. i love seeing the strong side of pysduck =). but one thing that really annoys me is that Ash wore his HAT in the water. What the Hell. anyway i wish psyduck would learn how to swim lol

To the writers of pokemon MAKE Ash's pokemon evolve. Squirtle and Bulbasaur should have evolved a long time ago.To be one you must believe you are one.My DP Team:

The banner was over 46,800 pixels, so it was killed off. Please read the signature rules.

Definitely one of the most interesting episodes in Johto.The whole concept of gym having underwater battles was unique and original.I also liked how Misty was annoyed at Dorien when he mentioned her sisters claiming how they consider her as a loser.Man she had all the right to be angry and im glad that she defended her honor.

Underwater battles were really great and it was nice seeing Ash and Misty in action.Im really glad that in this episode we finally get to see Goldeen in action which sadly wasnt showed too much during Johto and the battle between Mantine and Corsola was great too.Im glad that at the end after Dorien saw the true potential of Mistys Psyduck declared her as winner of the match,because i think she deserved it.Overall one of the better episodes for sure.

I thought that Dorian's gym was really neat. I really enjoyed seeing the underwater battles. I thought the battle between Misty and Dorian was really good. I wish we could have seen the last battle between them to determine a true winner. I thought that Misty's Psyduck was amazing when it used Psychic. I think that is the first time that Psyduck has used it.

I <3 May.

I do not do competitive battling and I really do not have any desire to. I also do not go out of my way seeking for shinies because I never really understood why they were so great anyways. All I truely enjoy pokemon contests, breeding, and in-game battling.

I think grass pokemon are the greatest ever and I take great pride in the ones I have raised. I also think that Chikorita is the most adorable pokemon ever!
